No. 1 Star: Frederik Andersen, Anaheim Ducks
The 4-1 Ducks win wasn’t nearly as lopsided as the score indicates. The Blackhawks controlled a majority of the first half, as it took a while for the Ducks to wake up. Chicago out-shot the Ducks the entire game, and were quick to jump on Anaheim’s mistakes. Andersen stood tall allowing only 1 goal on 33 shots.

No. 2 Star: Nate Thompson, Anaheim Ducks
Anaheim came into this series knowing their depth players would have to come up huge against the powerful Blackhawks.
